Anniversary Spotlight
Mike DeJong
Customer Service Manager
Village
Automotive Group is celebrating Mike DeJong’s 10th year of service with Lexus
of Wayzata.
Mike began his
career at Village Chevrolet as a Service Advisor in 2006. Since then he pursued
his career goals with Village Automotive Group when he was transferred from
Village Chevrolet to Lexus of Wayzata in June of 2011 as a Service Consultant. In January of 2014, he was promoted to
Customer Service Sales Manager, which he remains in today.
When describing
the culture of Village Automotive Group, Mike says, “They will reward you for
your hard work.” Mike believes employees
and managers are very connected and says he enjoys being able to talk to any of
the employees, even those outside of his team, because of the shared philosophy,
“We are all here to help our guests.”
There have been a
variety of training opportunities during Mike’s career. He has found that the Chicago
hands-on training with Lexus has been very helpful. Mike’s favorite event was
when the General Manager took his team to Lord Fletcher’s for a, “Nice dinner
and great comradery with fellow coworkers where all enjoyed a great
conversation.”
Most days, Mike
arrives to Lexus of Wayzata at 6:30am. He starts the day by preparing the
write-up area. In short, his day is spent assisting guests and the Advisor team
with questions providing guidance in supporting the Advisor team so they can
provide the Lexus experience. He also assists the Call Center team when
questions arise. His favorite part of the day is helping guests. Mike
encourages others to apply at villageautomoivegroup.com/careers because he
says, “If you want to be able to take care of a guest, this is the place to
work.”
Village
Automotive Group thanks Mike for his years of service and looks forward to his
future with us.

ReplyDeleteManagement of corporate events NYC comprised of the study of the complexities of brands, identifying target audience, creating event concepts, and planning the logistics. As a matter of fact, event management is pretty important these days.
